Quadratic stabilization of linear networked control systems via simultaneous protocol and controller design
We develop necessary and sufficient conditions for quadratic stabilizability of linear networked control systems by dynamic output feedback and communication protocols. These cond...

Modelling TCP congestion control dynamics in drop-tail environments
In this paper we study communication networks that employ drop-tail queueing and additive-increase multiplicative-decrease (AIMD) congestion control algorithms. We show that the t...

Switched seesaw control for the stabilization of underactuated vehicles
This paper addresses the stabilization of a class of nonlinear systems in the presence of disturbances, using switching controllers. To this effect we introduce two new classes o...

Nudelman interpolation, parametrizations of lossless functions and balanced realizations
Abstract: We investigate the parametrization issue for discrete-time stable allpass multivariable systems by means of a Schur algorithm involving a Nudelman interpolation condition...

Global nonlinear output regulation: Convergence-based controller design
In this paper we present output-feedback controllers solving the global output regulation problem for a class of nonlinear systems. The proposed controllers are based on the notio...

Unbiased minimum-variance input and state estimation for linear discrete-time systems
This paper addresses the problem of simultaneously estimating the state and the input of a linear discrete-time system. A recursive filter, optimal in the minimum-variance unbias...

Principles of 2-sliding mode design
Second order sliding modes are used to keep exactly a constraint of the second relative degree or just to avoid chattering, i.e. in the cases when the standard (first order) slidi...
